Bravo on the new CD release!

I love this new release, it was quite easy to setup.  I did however, run into a 
problem saving configs to floppy that I didn't see in any messages.  I thought an FYI 
for the archives would be good idea.  

I have a Packard Hell computer, Packmate 6200 (stop laughing), and surprisingly, it 
boots from the CD, even though there is no setting for that in the BIOS.  Anyway, if I 
had the BIOS set to try A then C, when I used the backup command in lrcfg to set a new 
destination for config files, it would not show the floppy as a choice.  I had to use 
custom. It would ask for the destination and file system which default to fd0 and 
msdos, so far so good.  Then when I tried to backup that package, it would error with 
"could not mount device".  Yet, I could manually mount the floppy no problem.  

I don't know why, but I set the BIOS to boot only from the C drive, and when I tried 
to set a custom destination, the floppy showed up as an option, and everything is 
peachy.  I looked at the lrcfg.back code and tried to see why it would give me gas 
about not finding the device, but I couldn't see why it would error.  It works just 
fine now, with no problems.

Hope that helps someone.

Later

Tony
